P.S: If you don't like it, I don't care, becauseit is an original one of my own. I just thought of it yesturday. I just thought that I would put something that no one has ever thought of into a HP fanfic.
Gazing around her room to see if anything needed to be straightened, Shelby Clark got up and rearranged her CD collection, so that it was now alphabetically ordered.
Her cousins had come over for a week because her aunt had to go on a buisness trip for the Ministry, and she left the dirty, disorganized monsters at Shelby's house, and they had gone in her room, along with all the others in the house, and messed everything up, so now, she's going around straightening everything up.
Well, you may not know this, but from Shelby's actions, you'd know that she was Obsessive Compulsive. Ever since her brother was killed, her whole family, basically, got torn apart, and that's why she is the way she is.
When Shelby had finished straightening up the house, an owl had perched it's self outside one of the windows.
"Mum! Mail's here!" Shelby had yelled, for she had thought that all living creatures were the most disgusting things on earth and that they all carried their own diseases. (Hence, why she's not getting the mail herself.)
Once her mother got the mail from the owl, she opened it and read it.
"Is it my Hogwarts letters?" Shelby asked.
"Yes. We'd better leave now, though, so there won't be a crowd of shoppers." Mrs. Clark said.
Once they had entered Diagon Alley, Shelby met up with her friends as her mother did the shopping.
"Why do you like cleaning?" Is a question her friends would always ask her.
"Because, the more sanitary things are, the less germs you'll spread, and the less likely you'll get sick." Would be the answer that Shelby would always give them.
As they entered The Quality Quidditch Supplies shop, Shelby walked around examining the items they had on sale.
"Cool, it comes with a handle polisher for your broomstick." Shelby said, as she read the box of the "Broomstick Care Kit."
When her friends finished buying their supplies, they headed out of the shop.
Upon leaving the shop, and Shelby being the one in front, she ran right in to Remus Lupin.
"Sorry." Lupin had said.
"That's okay." Shelby said, straightening herself up.
"So, Sirius, are you thinking of buying yourself a broom anytime soon?" James Potter asked.
"Probably not, why?" Sirius Black asked.
"So we can play Quidditch during summer and breaks. Maybe Remus too." James said.
"Just not at night, especially during a full moon." Sirius joked.
"Ha, ha, very funny." Lupin said, examining the same Broomstick Care Kit that Shelby had been examining minutes before.
"Sorry, Moony. Got a little carried away." Sirius said.
"In public it's Remus, remember?" Lupin asked.
"I know, I know." Sirius said.
"That's kind of cool." James said, spotting the Broomstick Care Kit.
"It comes with all sorts of things. Like a handle polisher, twig clippers, and all sorts of cool things." Lupin said.
After they had purchased some small things, they headed toward the bookstore for their text books.
"What are the books that we need?" Sirius asked.
"Look on your list, Sirius." Lupin said, pulling out his own list.
The three of them had split up in different directions to look for three copies of each book that was on their list.
As Lupin began searching for books, he spotted a group of girls sitting at one of the tables chatting.
One of the girls, he noticed, was quite attractive.
"There you are, Remus." Sirius had said, distinctly.
"What?" Lupin asked, turning around to see Sirius standing behind him.
"You staring at those girls, huh? Oo, you have good taste, Moony." Sirius said, looking at the group of girls.
"Do you know some of them?" Lupin asked.
"All of them are in Ravenclaw. I used to date one of them, remember?" Sirius asked.
"Yeah. Molly Corner. That blond." Lupin said, pointing to the blond who stood next to a large book case.
"Yes. But the only reason she dumped me was because she liked that Amos Diggory character. God, I cannot stand him!" Sirius said.
"Do you know that girl?" Lupin asked, pointing to the black-haired girl.
"Yeah. That's Shelby Clark. She's the most attractive girl in Ravenclaw house. But the thing is, she's Obsessive Compulsive." Sirius said.
"Really? Has she told you?" Lupin asked.
"No. Usually after Dueling I would see that she'd stay behind. Well, I was a little curious as to why she would, so one day I 'accidently' knocked over my bag, spilling it of it's contents, and took my time picking them up, when I looked up, I saw her straightening all the desks, and straightening the teacher's books." Sirius said.
"Are you serious?" Lupin asked.
"Yes. There's also rumours that she'd go down to the kitchens and cook her own food and bring them up everyday during meal times, because the house-elves were filty, and she didn't trust them. That's also why you'd see her carry around her own water bottle, and wipes." Sirius said.
This seemed quite strange to Lupin. An Obsessive Compulsive girl who was attractive?
After they all reunited, they gave each other the copies of the books they found.
As they headed toward the door, Lupin took a last glance toward the girl, and, sure enough, she was straightening some of the books on one of the book cases.
A little short, but who cares, it's only the first chapter.
